ATF Just Released Their Brace Ruling

[eyecanshoot]

That's what they tell you but they probably already have the dumpster company on speed-dial.

Would you give up your dad's guns?

I was just watching a Reno May video on this and not sure this was mentioned but NFA SBR's aren't allowed in all states. Anybody in the following states is completely screwed because they won't be able to register them as an SBR:

California
District of Columbia
Hawaii
New Jersey
New York
Rhode Island

I wonder if the ATF will compensate people in those states to turn their "pistol" into something compliant that they can legally own. Seems like this could be another lawsuit too.

I would say anyone in those states is completely screwed anyway.

No, they specifically state in the ruling that if you're in a state that prohibits SBRs it's not their responsibility to compensate you at all.

My problem with registering it would be my kids losing the ability to simply take possession of it when I'm gone. I have sentimental kids that will want to hang onto my stuff when I'm gone. My rights shouldn't cost my children anything.

Your kids can inherit them tax free. FYI

How many of those states even allow pistol length assault weapons in the first place?

Wouldn't they have to go thru the tax stamp process?

His guns? No way but that's because I like guns, not because I'm attached to that bastard in any way. I've seen what happenes when dad kicks. The 40 yard dumpster rolls in and the filling starts.

It's done on a form 5 tax free but there is still a fingerprint process requirement. They can't transfer them to anyone that is prohibited from owning them.

9.5.3 Distribution of estate firearms. A decedent*s registered NFA firearms may be conveyed taxexempt to lawful heirs. These distributions are not treated as voluntary *transfers* under the NFA.
Rather, they are considered to be involuntary *transfers by operation of law.* Under this concept, ATF
will honor State court decisions relative to the ownership and right to possess NFA firearms. So, when
State courts authorize the distribution of estate firearms to decedents* lawful heirs, ATF will approve the
distribution and registration to the heirs if the transactions are otherwise lawful. A lawful heir is anyone
named in the decedent*s will or, in the absence of a will, anyone entitled to inherit under the laws of the
State in which the decedent last resided.

9.5.3.1 Distributions to heirs. Although these distributions are not treated as *transfers* for
purposes of the NFA, Form 5 must be filed by an executor or administrator to register a firearm
to a lawful heir and the form must be approved by ATF prior to distribution to the heir. The
form should be filed as soon as possible. However, ATF will allow a reasonable time to arrange
for the transfer. This generally should be done before probate is closed. When a firearm is being
transferred to an individual heir, his or her fingerprints on FBI Forms FD-258 must accompany
the transfer application. The application will be denied if the heir*s receipt or possession of the
firearm would violate Federal, State, or local law. The law enforcement certification on the form
need not be completed. The form should also be accompanied by documentation showing the
executor*s or administrator*s authority to distribute the firearm as well as the heir*s entitlement
to the firearm. Distributions to heirs should not be made until Forms 5 are approved. Executors
and administrators are not required to have estate firearms registered to them prior to distribution
to lawful heirs.

Not sure but with the YT channel I was watching is from California so that is at least one state that's SOL.
